What’s New
We’re excited to announce several powerful new features that give you more control over how you create and organize blog content!
Three Blog Layouts
You can now choose from three distinct blog layouts to match your content type:
Standard Layout - The versatile default option with sidebar table of contents, perfect for tutorials and guides.
Magazine Layout - Feature-rich two-column design for long-form articles and case studies.
Minimal Layout - Clean, centered typography (like this post!) ideal for announcements and simple reads.
Simply set the layout field in your frontmatter to standard, magazine, or minimal.
Custom URL Routing
Organize your content hierarchy with flexible URL routing options:
- Single category:
/tutorials/slug/ - Nested categories:
/tutorials/astro/slug/ - Full custom paths:
/guides/beginner/slug/
Configure using the category, subcategory, or categoryPath frontmatter fields. No code changes required!
